Episode 9: Twitter at the altar?


I read this morning on Yahoo Odd News that someone interrupted his wedding to Tweet that he just got married hahaha.

Groom creates viral storm twittering from altar:
NEW YORK (Reuters) – A Maryland groom has created an viral story storm after he interrupted his wedding last month to update his Facebook and Twitter accounts from the altar.
Dana Hanna, who works for a pet website, also posted a short video of the ceremony on the Internet. It showed him reaching into his pocket for his phone as the minister was about to pronounce the couple husband and wife.

I'm really new to this whole Twitter thing (literally, maybe a week only), and while I acknowledge that it IS pretty addicting... wow. Even I have a limit to my geekiness. (Yes, I say that even though I took the picture of me so that you can see my Bleach anime calendar at my work cubicle.)

Romeo better not pull out his iPhone at the altar next March because if he does, I'm going to laugh so hard that I'll start crying and then it'll ruin whatever makeup I have on and he'll look like he's marrying a clown lookin' chick (nobody wants a clown for a wife. They're scary!). And then my family will disown him before we're even married! Traditional Asian parents FTW.

My friend Hollen suggested streaming a video of my wedding live over the internet for those who can't make it. Not entirely sure what I think of that. It could be pretty cool, and then it could be pretty ... embarrasing. Blackmail material :O Who knows what crazy shenanigans will happen that can't get edited out before the world sees it? :)

I know I say I want to be famous one day, but I'd prefer it to be for something a little more worthwhile... say, saving the world for example. Ah well, we'll see what happens. Can't have it all I guess :D

  1. 1. Maryland. Of course. We're a little nuts here.
    2. Five different font colors, two different font background colors, three different font styles, three different font sizes, plus right justification. Seriously?
    3. Big picture: your blog color/graphics scheme makes my face hurt.
    4. Sup.
